Gonna get your buds moldy if there is too much excess moisture. Can you put a tarp over it?

Yeah i have a like mesh sort of tarp over her which keeps out a decent amount of rain. I'll try and put a tarp over it for today.
I wouldn't know what week she's in flowering.But she's held up well in this odd SW weather.
 
Anyone used out-of-date Eco Neem oil for controlling aphids?

I've discovered I've got an infestation on a couple of plants outside, so I've sprayed/drenched them with plain water & then sprayed with Eco Neem, but as I was putting the bottle away, I noticed that it expired in August this year.

I know it's got a 2-year shelf-life, but would it still be effective? If I upped the dosage, would I be doing any harm, or should I just bite the bullet & get some fresh stuff?

I've thought about making my own white oil: https://www.abc.net.au/gardening/factsheets/diy-white-oil/9437342 but not sure if I could use it all the way through to harvest, or alternatively, get something with a low withholding period before the chop finally arrives.

Advice/thoughts please?

The two different phenos feed differently but they have been on the same feed schedule and strengths. One pheno likes a little bit more than the other so one has more nutrient burn than the other. Getting better at feeding them though as i used to always under feed heavily so thats something im improving on.

Going to depend on where it's been stored. If it's been in the sun and/or exposed to high temps I'd fuck it off.
I'd just get a fresh bottle myself.

Thanks, I was kinda erring towards that side of caution myself. It's gone through 2 summers inside & away from sunlight, but if it's going to be ineffective, it's not going to be worth the effort of using it.

Cheers.

Whenever you can just give em a good shake, when the sun comes out and you're clear from rain just fuck the tarp off.

Buy some new oil and mix it with the old.

I found good results with non-systemic Abamectin. About 1ml/ litre. Sold as Stealth insecticide.

Not sure how. Im in their most days. Is so far right in some topics that people believe that the earth is flat.

American politics in general is wayyy to the right of our Center. Our Liberal party is our conservative party for eg. Yanks just cannot get their heads around that one.
 
Caged-up the other Green Crack & Wonder Woman out in the bush today that have been finally freed from the indoor tent:

I'm kinda partial to a bit of bondage & discipline, so they've been given a damn-good seeing-to. Mulching is next.

I broke a few branches in the process of doing this (I'm just soooo rough & rugged.....:roll:!), so I've got a swag of clone-able bits & pieces to play with, since the Wonder Woman just doesn't seem to like to be cloned:
